Another embarrassing incident for the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department.

Another Deputy alleged to have had sex with a inmate. This time at the Glen Helen Rehabilitation Center in Devore. The incident follows a similar event made public just a week or so before.

Combine this developing news, with a series of Deputy-Explorer sex scandals from the past two years, and it just doesn’t look too good at this point.

Discipline and organizational attitudes flow from the top down and something has to change.

Newly-appointed Sheriff-Coroner John McMahon has two important tasks he must face if he’s to be successful.

Those tasks being; re-establish discipline in the ranks; and keeping District Attorney Michael Ramos at bay from sinking his claws into him.

I’ve done some checking recently and it looks as if McMahon still has pretty much no significant baggage. He’s a family man without any known predisposition for womanizing, and an essentially good reputation and record.

McMahon needs to step-up and deal with discipline lapses and make it clear that those who seriously screw up will be dealt with. Otherwise favors and deals come into play. In my opinion his two predecessors, Gary Penrod and Rod Hoops, focused more on covering-up mainly for the purpose of avoiding bad press and embarrassment to the agency.

It’s no secret both men were compromised, and it cost them dearly.

Penrod exited with two years left in his last term, while Hoops departed two years into his first term, in office.

Deal making on illegal conduct unfortunately involves the local DA. And, in Ramos, both sheriff’s found someone willing to play give and take.

A form of give and take likely held over their heads.

Ramos likes to use the phrase “being on the team”. Sources say Ramos is working hard to bring McMahon on the team.

The recent example of give and take is what is commonly known as the P.O.S.T. scandal involving the falsification of training records for either increased compensation or the avoidance of state mandated certification training. Seven current and former department members were served-up and recklessly indicted out of the incident. One defendant, Retired Captain Bill Maddox, who didn’t commit any crime, has already been dismissed. A second defendant dismissal is likely, due to insufficient evidence. Dozens of other violators were handled administratively. Sources say, as a part of a deal, the statute of limitations was allowed to lapse on all other criminal violators.

Sources say Maddox has been weighing a lawsuit, but is hesitant because his kid works for the department.

For McMahon, this type of deal-cutting can’t happen. He should privately ask his two predecessors how they feel about their poor decisions and dark dealings with Ramos and he’ll likely get an interesting answer.

This is a interesting article. Significant dirt on McMahon until the last year or so has been just like the article says. NONE exsistant.

But not long ago we had the Idaho plates on McMahons personal truck that popped up, since then the ball has rolled downhill for McMahon. The Idaho plates on it’s FACE was pure fraud.

Oh he took them off, but not before folks raised hell.

Recent events in the civil service arena with TRANSCRIPTS in the hands of the finger pointers already suggest McMahon is NOT going down any other path than Hoops or Penrod.

McMahon is simply going down the same path with a little different STYLE. A better handshake and nicer suit is all the difference so far.

McMahon is looking SQUARE in the face of one of the largest and most scandal ridding lawsuits in Federal court in the last 20 years.

McMahons fingerprints are ALL over the case. John McMahons fingerprints are all over the cases involving at least two Deputy Sheriff’s who were acquitted in recent criminal cases.

The pending civil case is laced with more perjury,fabrication of evidence,records I have ever seen, much like one of the criminal cases involving at least one deputy thus far.

We even have allegations and some serious evidence suggesting Sheriff’s Intelligence HACKED the private cell phones of 3 employees WITHOUT a court order or subpoena in one of those explorer sex scandals looking for evidence.

So if you don’t mind the Sheriff violating Federal or State laws while he conducts investigations, OKAY!!

Oh McMahon will throw those rank and file under the bus, so far NO ONE of his upper level supervisors has been SMACKED for the more serious violations, that go WAY above what you read in the papers.

But he has promoted those who lie and cheat.

NOPE nothing great going on with McMahon, just that he didn’t have BAGGAGE coming on board like others did.

But he is QUICKLY collecting it, at a higher rate of speed than those before him.

Did I tell you there is a NEW law firm in town who AIN’T playing the same old songs?

I predict John McMahon will be playing the part of Jack Nicholson from a “few good men” at some immediate time in the future.

I have a nice seat on the bus, the view is grand.

… “keeping District Attorney Michael Ramos at bay from sinking his claws into him.” Claws? I hear these two men toast with the expensive stuff together! Oh, oh, you mean foolish McMahon is headed for a trap?

“I’ve done some checking recently and it looks as if McMahon still has pretty much no significant baggage.”

Great advice, and it is definitely an accurate conclusion, however, OF COURSE McMahon has no “significant baggage” THAT IS WHY he was carefully “selected”!!!

“Penrod exited with two years left in his last term, while Hoops departed two years into his first term, in office”

And both men have already counseled McMahon very quietly and carefully over the years, watch your backs, McMahon has no problem using a knife to the back, he learned it from the best. In reality, with his innocent looking face and all, McMahon is no different and not to be trusted, he always looked up to Penrod and Hoops, and yearned to one day inherit their powerful position- he has! McMahon, unfortunately, is too weak and will not do anything “different” than they have done- good or bad. I hope I am proven wrong!

But, you lost me at this article. How can McMahon establish discipline in the ranks if the executive staff is busy screwing over their own rank and file?? How does one establish discipline when everyone knows the Brass would throw them under the bus in a hot second if it suited their political agenda? Seriously. There is a lot missing in your analysis. Also, D.A. Ramos covers for the Sheriff, Buzz and Woody, remember?? I don’t think either calls the shots, don’t they have the same puppet master??

For McMahon, this type of deal-cutting is happening. He has privately asked his two predecessors how they feel about their decisions and dark dealings with Ramos.

To act like he was not already on board is crap. You don’t hang with the likes of Hoops and get promoted to DC without being a turd.

Boy! The last laugh is surely on us if we believe -pretty face, deer in the headlights boy- McMahon, is pure of heart and mind and wants to be “different” than his mentors Hoops and Penrod…a copy of his phone records would indicate otherwise!

The stupid plan is too obvious, to appoint innocent looking pretty boy and have him gain the confidence and TRUST by professing a sincere desire to do right by the public it serves and the department.

100 miles away, Penrod and Hoops SMELL a sincere desire for SBC to change, and have found a way to exploit our “weakness” – they have the impression our guard is down, lol, and instructed pretty face McMahon to “mix” in well with us, speak our language, and get close enough to go for the kill; then bring back our our heads to them in a silver platter!

The Board had a chance to appoint Paul Schrader which would’ve been a hell of a lot better than McMahon. Hell even 70 year old Buschy would have been better than McMahon. A HoBo or dog on the street would’ve been better than McMahon.

Want to get rid of the corrupt shit in this county? A Yes vote for Schrader in 2014. We need someone that cares for the deputies and the public. Schrader does not owe any of the Deputy Chiefs and up anything. This would be a fresh breath of air. Also Schrader has no connection to DA Ramos.

McMahon is just another POS that Tidwell shit from his birth line of so called sheriff. I call them evil losers.

ACU you are 100% on target with:

But you are wrong about:

“So Red, I think it’s about time you come out from the keyboard, put your resume on the table on your EXPERTISE on crime and corruption.”

There is no need to throw that type of attack on Red! You tell Red you have been paying attention to his commentary? Then you should have noticed he is not some LWS, and that should be good enough.

We many disagree on the Derry issue with him, and deep down he may even recognize he was indeed wrong.

But to insinuate that Red’s opinion and comments hold no credibility solely because he does not put his name and resume out here is foolish!

#6, I debated writing this, because apparently what happened to my husband is a “petty grain of sand” and yesterdays news, but I am going to comment anyway, because stupidity needs to be called out and questioned. So, what Sheriff Hoops did in interfering in my husband’s case is not Federal material? There is a federal statute for “obstruction of justice”, but fine, for the sake of argument, it is not Federal. OK, then please, someone tell me what one is supposed to do when a crime is possibly committed, by an elected official, and no local agency will investigate because they are either involved or corrupt themselves? As citizens are we supposed to accept crime because some will not act and others think it is too small?? So if we allow some crimes to be acceptable that way then doesn’t that encourage more criminal behavior? I would argue, in my opinion, that Rod Hoops probably did not worry about what he did because he didn’t think he would get caught, and he knew if he did there would be no repercussions because both San Bernardino and Orange County have the same power players. So, what reason if there for McMahon not to do the same type of thing to his own men? The last guy got away with it. There is no reason for him not to try it. So while you wait for your “boulders” you are encouraging it’s creation by allowing all of those “grains of sand” to become that “boulder”.

LSW thank you for the support. I guess because we are not cops or lawyers and only citizens our opinions matter less. I will now allow you #6 to go back to your great boulder debate while nothing in your county changes.

Anon#32…..of course they are not joined at the hip. I am only pointing out what should be obvious in view of our recent elections. As for being careful for what I wish for, better government will never happen. We are too morally broke as a society and our status as such was premeditated. Those responsible have painted themselves as victims and the disenfranchised, as this site demonstrates, side with the perpetrators of public misery.

Did you know my husband and therefor know what he would want?? How do you know she is in a world of pain? I have not seen evidence of her pain in her transcripts and otherwise.

Also, #36, none of my comments were overly explanatory about the details of my husband’s case. They were just a commentary on how we should not accept crime on any level because it encourages others to think they can get away with it. So, are you telling me I do not have a right to use MY NAME in my commentary? Do you really think Duane would not want me to use MY NAME? I am after all, legally, Mrs. Duane Parkison. I really don’t think this is causing him any unrest in the afterlife… Anyone who knew him would know his children were the most important people in his life, and they want me to continue to tell HIS story, not the story SHE told that one of his so called “friends” told to the newspaper inappropriately.

The transcripts and police report give the real story. Dont borher to feel bad for the woman who hit Duane. She’s a total con and she lied and used family influence to gain favors from high up politicos. She probably only legitimately cried when she got caught by a detective on the straight and narrow who wouldn’t let her walk away squeaky clean like she wanted everyone (including you maybe?) to believe she was. The woman was driving negligently. She should feel bad for killing him because she drove like a careless idiot.. I think she knows exactly what she did. Bet her neighbors do to. Duane would love for his wife to fight that stupid con artist on his behalf. He wouldn’t let someone like that go. He’d fight.

Oh and let’s not forget that Hoops said on and off the record that he wishes he didn’t have lunch with her. He knew what was up by the time the depo arrived so he had to cover things up. But if he said off the record to a person unrelated to the department that he wished he never met with her and said it sincerely to this person, he was probably telling the truth.

Well for some of you here, this MIGHT be a little motivation for Dennis Jr to be saying what he says about Sharon.

Your right Dennis Jr, I talk to much especially when your on my radar. You know I spared Sheriff Rod Hoops no slake.

Those of you who simply think pointing a finger at anyone accusing them of crimes, and the cops are going to run over and arrest them without ANY proof, even start an investigation simply shows how inept you are to our system.

Don’t feel bad though many common citizens get told NO everyday and they too get ALL upset because someone wasn’t going to use their badge for their agenda. GENERALLY revenge for a basic understanding.

REALLY, put a person on trial or start a criminal investigation JUST on your good word. WOW, your moronic actions will be exposed as it was in this article.

Hmm, a political staffer or employee of any company working among those they NOW say you are nothing but a criminal should have been gathering EVIDENCE in the case for a long period of time, a ton of documents that would SHOW what your saying MIGHT be true, THAT SIMPLE.

Worse yet when you know those your working around MIGHT be dirty by their mere affiliation with other criminals if you had HALF a brain you would be COLLECTING information to SOME day use as a get out of free jail card.

If your having problems sleeping at night because your boss is a crook and you think you might go to jail with him for being an accessory to a crime, AGAIN you’d have collected EVIDENCE of those crimes, and sought out the advise of an attorney on what to do when the POOP hits the fan.

When one waits for a period of 7 years to call foul, then when challenged comes up with NOTHING to support their comments, well what do you think is going to happen?

YES I’d say your going to part of a “meat grinder” and that is what happened in this case.

Still not SMART enough to see that you failed on that, you AGAIN counter with an attack on the messenger? Then tell the messenger you talk to much and carry on under an anonymous screen name to full fill a baseless agenda?

Or post poetry to impress who or deflect the issue itself.

In the real world outside the elitist mind set, someone might come calling on you and shove your agenda and comments right up your ass. Sorry if you politically correct souls find that appauling. GET over it.

Don’t whine when you get hammered on something as glarring as this.

I also think it might be Frank Pine who is trying to get close to some of the new executives. He is a Ranger but trying to position himself, I think. Not sure for what but the Rangers are in a big split because of Cook.

Please if anyone has some intel to help firm up this info post it.

It’s about McMahon and things to come.

#74. What work are you doing? It seems to me you say nothing and just insult others. What are you going to uncover? And, last I looked, this is not your blog so you can’t tell anyone to go home. If the Administrator does not like something, he can delete or block people. Your job is to comment, or not. That is what a blog is about, commentary. You really do sound like a spoiled baby.

Rangers include Stater Bros. Markets, Inc. Mr. Jack H. Brown. Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Wonder where most of the food for the jails come from? Penrod, Hoops and McMahon are Rangers.

Pine is the key to the local press NO Freedom of the press here. Brown helps with the local money grab for fun things.

There is a list that was printed with Rangers names on it.

ACU, you are a much more spoiled child than me, so stop the ugly words.

Getting back to the subject of a dysfunctional SBSD, talking about BEING RETIRED, but not like Brad and Neil, but BECAUSE OF THE LAST ELECTION amongst many other indiscretions, the most glaring example ever of a RETIREMENT OF CONVENIENCE is ret.-Sheriff Hoops.

The Hoopster outlived his usefulness to the machine, just as County Counsel Ruth Stringer and numerous other top administrators have before him (incl. the Admin of this blog), and ended-up BEING RETIRED, some with a great big golden handshake and old-fashioned pay-off, in the form of a PENSION SPIKE JOB (s.a. with Ruthie’s additional $80K/yr. for life DEAL WITH THE DEVIL.

No wonder Hoops announced his retirement before the end of the year before the rules changed, bet he made his own deal with Devilreaux… how much will Rodney’s pension end-up being spiked under the old rules, where anything goes in love, war and public pension spiking?

#70 Annon states,

“I also think it might be Frank Pine who is trying to get close to some of the new executives. He is a Ranger but trying to position himself, I think.”

MEMO: No need to drag Pine’s name is the mix, Ranger or not, he is the editor our paper, and like him or not it’s HIS paper, and as a spoiled child himself HE calls the shots in HIS paper PERIOD! So like Nelson, Pine is also off limits please, just let him be.

ACU lost me in #86, in #84 he asks (again) “..let us ALL know what scandals you brought to the for front.” I will repeat from #61, (again) “As I said before, this is Inlandpolitics, not iepol.! We are picking up the pace here. Once the targets are dealt with, we move on, there’s no time to slow down to pat ourselves in the back and reminisce, that will only bring us to a SCREECHING HALT and our opportunity will fade, sending SBC back into oblivion!”

#89, Pine does not own the paper he is an employee. Why do you feel you need to tell people what to post?

Pine and Nelson are off limits? Well that answers questions to why the reports of wrong doing by McMahon at SBSD never gets reported. Hoops was given a golden pass by Mr. Pine.

Who wants to bring their business to San Bernardino County when you have so much corruption in county government with the Board of Supervisors, DA and sheriff all in bed with the local Editor.

Also does Jack Brown feed the animals at the jail? If so that would be a great story. But unless we get an outside source to report it, the local press will not pick it up.

No thanks.

#89, SBC is IN oblivion. And your rantings aren’t changing that. Answer the question, what are you doing, what have you done??? You seriously defend a newspaper that won’t report on what is really happening? The press used to have a responsibility to the public, now they only report on what makes the County look good? That is OK? Fine, yes they have freedom of the press, but then we as the public have a right to out them on their biases. If enough people find out then nobody will read them for information and everyone will know they are just a mouthpiece for the County. Didn’t they have to leave the big pretty new building? Hopefully they will go under. Welcome to the age of the Internet and free speech. Try to keep up…

Again general statements from Dennis Nowicki Jr.

Now we know why Brad didn’t HIRE YOU!!!! OMG!!!!

I will repeat from #61, (again) “As I said before, this is Inlandpolitics, not iepol.! We are picking up the pace here. Once the targets are dealt with, we move on, there’s no time to slow down to pat ourselves in the back and reminisce, that will only bring us to a SCREECHING HALT and our opportunity will fade, sending SBC back into oblivion!”

So tell us Dennis how you or WE have dealt with the targets? What targets have you dealt with?

LIST those target that YOU dealt with and the outcome of your UNIQUE approach.

Would those targets be the ones you launch your poetry at? WOW that is sure dealing with the topic at hand.

And you or WE have taken SBC out of oblivion? HOW is that?

Maybe you can provide a link to something YOU or WE have done proving what you say.

Example might be me showing the article Sharon wrote calling BS on your mom and then the obvious side stepping you did not OFFERING up any evidence the story was BS, just trying to suggest Brad is gone been dealt with blah blah.

As long as everyone reading your blather, realizes you are under the influence of medication like our pal James Mills is under the influence of alcohol when he posts, everyone will better understand your level of credibility.

I know you read some of the famous rhetoric from Rasuili or Back in OC at the other blog, he too was under HEAVY medication MOST of the time, I talkde to him more than once and confirmed that.

So how much PROZAC are you on????

Have you appeared before the BOS and impressed them with your communication skills to date?

Let us know if you have,the date and time PLEASE. I’d like to see what type of tie you wore during your presentation.

Can you handle such a task while sober?

A person with your poetic commentary is definately something WE need to see first hand.

Ya know, the voice,appearance,command presence. I bet Janice Rutherford will be speechless when your done. Maybe Mr.Lovingood will hire you on as his Chief of Staff and fire Holland.

Hopefully the cops in the room won’t book you for being under the influence in a public place there after.

The founders of San Bernardino County are not whom you may have been told about in school. No, it was not A.B. Miller, or the Kaiser’s or even the Cocci Crime Family. It was founded by a group of brave, but unnamed explorers hired by the U.S. Government to try and figure out where that smell was coming from.

Later, the Miller’s and the Kaiser’s settled in San Bernardino County where not coincidentally was where their last wagon wheel had fallen off. The remaining watery eyed settlers equipped only with their last clean water from Colorado, and a limited number of clothespins for the children and livestock, carried on westward. They traveled on what would one day be Route 66, and it’s said they met whom they believed to be the first resident in Fontana. A proud man, standing on a rock, with a minors pick in one hand, a Corn-Jug in the other, and no pants.

The remaining members of the Wagon Train went on to settle areas at Capistrano Beach and Pacific Palisades. The End.

Mrs. P the offer still stands (more than ever) to visit the river side.

I’ll guarantee u that Sharon’s site going down shortly after Blough FLEW THE SBPEA COUP is no coincidence, the County HAS FORGOTTEN HOW TO DO BUSINESS in an EQUAL OPPORTUNITY for EMPLOYMENT environment, or allow anybody their FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS of FREE SPEECH w/o fear of RETRIBUTION… sounds familiar, huh?

The Devil of a CEO has undone a portion of the County unionized workforce by creating his own posse called the UNREPRESENTED SERVICE, or his immediate managers, that are nothing more than high priced POLITICAL CONSULTANTS (like old Red Anon Josh… now that he got a job as a Policy Advisor with the Chair’s office, he’s probably BANNED FROM BLOGGING, right Janice?)

Now the Devil is screaming he needs the Stupidvisors to convince their constituents, the general electorate, to vote for a COUNTY CHARTER AMENDMENT, and go ahead and officially codify all the CIVIL SERVICE EMPLOYMENT and EMPLOYEE RELATIONS changes that he has already made!?

Sounds like a tough sell to GENERAL PUBLIC… that’s me.
